Android Auto reaches cars in 18 more countries

Your car is now that much smarter in Europe, Latin America, India and Russia.

Android Autoisn't just available in a handful of countries anymore. Google hasexpandedits phone-as-infotainment integration to 18 more countries, as well as Puerto Rico. Most of the coverage revolves around Europe and Latin American nations (including Austria, Brazil, Colombia and Switzerland), but there are big exceptions like India and Russia. Your car or head-end unit will need to support Android Auto as well, of course, but this may hit the spot if you're hoping to stream music while you're stuck in Mumbai traffic.
